Art Barrios is city planning commissioner for the town of El Monte in California. For now. The former city councilman and mayor candidate is under fire from CAIR, a Muslim civil liberties advocacy organization(yeah, right), and the local media for sharing an article from THIS website regarding Chinas policy toward Islam. Now he is paying a steep price.
For this posting, Barrios is now under fire and his job is in question, thanks to pressure from, and demands by, CAIR:
While Mr. Barrios has the right to his bigoted views, it is unacceptable for a person who holds such views to be in a position of public trust and authority, the local CAIR agitator said. Discrimination against building of mosques is widespread and well documented, and therefore it is unacceptable that a planning commissioner of any city, who ought to be fair and neutral, would hold such hateful views.

The “I” word
F**k CAIR and the horse they rode in on.
Discrimination against building of mosques is wise public policy.
This should be a plus for the guy in the USA
Agreed! Also, Latino vs. Muslims...two protected minorities...this ought to get interesting! ;)
They are known terrorist supporters.
CAIR must be thrown out of the U.S. Their BIGOTED pro-Muslim stance must be curbed and shown for what it is, the undermining of America by a radical terrorist group.
Freedom of Speech is the Freedom to Offend without consequences. It is a First Amendment guaranteed right.
bkmk
Folks, it is long oast time for US to make these city officials worry...a lot...about doing such things.
A lot means making them worry as much as do publishers of drawings of the ....er...prophet.
CAIR is a terrorist front organization and should
be disbanded and the officers put in prison or
deported.
If Christians stood up for him, that would be what they are supposed to be doing right now.

Says the representative of the religion that bombs churches, burns them down, outlaws the building of new ones, and slaughters the membership.
Do any 'journalists' ever ask these Moslem whiners if they think it is wrong that Christians cannot build churches in Saudi Arabia, or even hold church services? While demanding endless rights in the US, are Moslems ever asked about the widespread denial of basic rights to non-Moslems in many Moslem majority nations?
They should not be allowed to "get on their high horse" in the US without being questioned about the status of non-Moslems in Moslem majority nations.'
This being Kali, this guy is probably a leftist. If not, CAIR should pay a price for their meddling.
